I heard my friend said that Bitcomet can help us to download the latest movie from the internet. So I download it and have it installed in my PC and start my downloding. I go to uwants.com to find the torrent and download my favourite movie. But after 30 minutes of watching my download i fell that the bitcomet is so slow -.- only 1-2kb/sec I called my friend and he said he doesnt encountered this problem. Did someone can help me solve this problem ?? And did u all got use bitcomet ?? Got anything good with it ??

There was once a time where my BitComet keep on terminated with a popup error by itself when downloading the files. I was so frustrated and switch to uTorrent. And not seeing this kind of error again. Later i found that it's due to my PC had been infected with adware and spyware. After removing with the remover, then it's back to normal :)

It's a really good software. As long as you could find the torrent file and it's updated enough (don't use those more than a week old), then you be able to download those files from seeds all over the world. Initially i thought it is the software problem that coz the slow speed but so far i found there 2 factors that affect the speed. The first one is the number of seeds online. Seeds are those PC which already completed the download, and upload to all the peers. We should see the supply and demand rate, if seeds more than leech, than the speed will be very fast coz the supply is more than demand and vice versa for leech more than seeds. The 2nd factor is the wirewall and portforwarding stuff. This is hardware specific and can't help you much. But you could look for better answer in the net. Usually this is not the cause but you could check it out for sure :) You should leave your PC and internet connection on 24/7 coz some seeds are only alive during night time (seeds are PC in different time zone in the world)

It's a setting in the router that let you configure how your software port connected to the internet gateway. Not sure how you connect to the internet. Is it thru a router or jst a simple modem? If you are using Streamyx, than it's just a basic ADSL modem. But if you buy the hardware yourself, you need to study on how to optimize the internet speed.

Hi Stenvoon, I heard about Bitcomet. Never used it as UTorrent looks better and superior than this. I stick to uTorrent because of its speed and downloads without any interruption. Anyway, Bitcomet's downloadable speed is less than uTorrent.

I guess most of used Bitcomet for torrent downloads. There were other good programs like Azereus and uTorrent you might want to try those. As for your slow download speeds, most common program users encounter were the lack of seeders or the ISP speed throtting. Good luck :)

Ya i think this is the problem too. Many ppl tell me that it is because lack of seeds. But i think there still might be something about my configuration.

any software you use has its own pro's and con's. i use utorrent to download the stuff from internet. i think you are experiencing the problems because of your internet service provider or your firewall or some of your system configurations. you have to modify all these. best of luck!

Im trying to modify it i think i sure success with all the help from all the friends here :)

NO.. I use uTorrent. I think is better and I know well the interface:) I work with it easy and I know his settings. You cand try it if you want and you'll see that is easy to use! Also you problem persists because the seeder doesn't have much bandwith than you expect.. all downloads that uses peer to peer connection it depends on the others peer bandwith. More seeders more chances to go to the limit of your bandwith.:)

Ya i think this is the problem also :) 10s tfor telling me that ;)

first, it help the internet spread the pirated software, games and movies, so if you country are strict with these rules, you shoule be careful. the, it is a p2p software, that means the more the people downloading, the fast your downloading speed. so, if few people are downloading movie you are downloading, it would be very slow. last, how is your internet connection? adsl is much slower than lan in downloading by p2p software. hope these could help you.

Ya im using ADSL. I know this is a not so legal program but i think my country now so strict with these rules. 10s for ur suggest too.

I use BitComet. What i found, my connection + bitcomet = fast on bright daylight. raining = less fast. but i guess it's all depending on number of seeders. if you've got a very high speed connection but the file your downloading is too old and less seeders, you end up downloading very slow also. so conclusion, more seeders = faster; you can even go to the max of your high speed connection. (t...but im getting suspicious on bitcomet. i feel like there's some hidden program running behind it because it got my computer go slower since i installed it...hmmm....)

YES.. I also use bitcomet, I use it for about 1 years already. It very useful for me cause I like to see new movie. I use to download smallville and the latest is season 6 already. The latest movie you download the more seeder you can find and that mean you can download that file more faster.. About 3-5kb/sec for new movie and many seeder. Good luck..

i have used Bitcomet and Bitlord, both are essentially the same but the problem is some torrent sites ban the use of both clients. so now i use Utorrent, which is much faster and used far lesser resources.
• Malaysia
26 Dec 06
Many ppl say Utorrent good i think i should try it too.
